I live in one of the states near Texas and I'm starting to see bare shelves where I'm at. Nothing as major as the pics in the article but I expect it to get more and more apparent where I live over the next few months.

I remember when Covid first started that stores around me were proactive and put limits on certain products. But I do think the media wants to spread panic.

But I do think the media wants to spread panic.

The UK recently had [another] panic buying spree for gas/petrol where it's looking like the supply side of things wasn't the issue [again]. Because it was reported it might happen it went ahead and happened. Always wondered if the financial crisis in the early 2000s was also subject to this that one of the main reasons groups like Black Rock failed was because some "expert" said the company might be in danger and people thought "OH SHIT BETTER GET MY MONEY!" which then caused the very problem being talked about.

Sure there were other factors in play but it's always something worth considering just how much the media has driven these cases.

I'm in Kansas, near Kansas CIty.... I am definitely noticing large sections of CERTAIN products that randomly go missing. For exmaple, for the last week or so I have had trouble finding ANY unsweet ice tea in a bottle/jug. Now I am not saying I looked at every store, or couldn't find it if I tried hard enough, but for a solid week at all the places I happened to go to [walmart, quick trip, ect] there literally was none I could find. Finally today I found a small bottle lol. It seems weird. I am sure if I went on a search through town I would find SOME but it was pretty odd just how this item seemed to be gone everywhere [but plenty of sweet tea].

And, a few other items like that too. Nothing vital, but certain items randomly missing or shelves that just have big random blanks in it.

It is possible to do both.
